The work can be done by local workers - ie: those that have been born and bred in the country.

This wouldn't be a bad idea. I am always seeing patients in labor and delivery that obviously only came to this country to have an American baby. Not just poor people. People who fly in the whole family for the delivery, and have very nice hotels listed as their address. We always have to ask for cash from these people. It creates a rather uncomfortable situation, but we figure if they can afford the plane tickets, the hotel, the hospital fee and the ob/gyn, then they can afford the anesthesia as well. Certain ob/gyns have made a whole industry out of this. They even advertise in these other countries.

the title is misleading
And it's a little dated as well (the e-mail linked on the site is from 5 March 2009, less than two months after President Obama assumed office), where the program has been discontinued...

But "Judicial Watch" and the "Daily Caller" don't let facts get in the way of a good Obama bash...

Much of the socialism in this country is driven by rural interests. This is just one example. For some others read the detailed "fees" in your phone bill. Rural hospitals and airports also.
That's BS in the highest order. We get nothing back in the form of lower prices due to illegal aliens picking fruits & vegtables. American's or legal H1 visa workers can do that job without wrecking the
economey. Food stamps are a joke.

I guess no one has informed you that this is a democracy. There should be no "socialism" at all in this country, even if there is a closet commie in the white house. Rural interests do not equate to food stamps anyway. That's just another red herring.

Those "immigrants" (LPR's) had to show they were here 5 years from date of entry or can show 40 work credits before the 5 years. They can also obtain earlier if they merely pop out a child here as the child is automatically eligible (this is how illegals obtain this Federal program - POP.....here's a US born kid).

Immigrant minors can also receive SNAP benefits before being Legal Permanent Residents for five years, as long as they are legally present...

Oops But it's much more fun pretending that only Democrats love illegals and welfare

This is sadly very true. They vote democratic because the democrats always promise and give them all sorts of social welfare programs and goodies.

So all immigrants whether they be legal or illegal are able to get some welfare benefits through their children then?
